I only believe in stealing for survival. If my kids are going hungry or they NEED something I can't provide for them....I will do what I have to for them.

I wouldn't steal from people I know though. That isn't cool. I would try to steal basics at the store. Bread, pasta, milk, etc.

Nope. Never. Too lazy to. =]

When I was a teenager back in high school I used to...a lot! I wont do that anymore! I actually got a family member pulled into my life of crime and hate myself for it!

I've never stolen. Not consciously. But this time on vacation I reached into my pocket in a store and discovered I had this little decorative wall hook from our previous hotel! No clue how it got in there. I guess I must have picked it up and meant to out it back in the wall or something and forgot all about it? Anyway, tiny stuff like that might happen. Accidentally taking pens and stuff. But who hasn't accidentally taken a pen once or twice? XD

I have in the past when I was an immature teen, but I don't do it anymore

I stole something once, but it was on accident. I carried it out of the store without realizing I had it in my hand. I brought it right back. They didn't look at me very kindly, and I never went back to the store again.

Not for me, thanks.

I would never steal.

Sad how that is all that some know.

Never unless accidentally.

Oh wait, I lied--I have stolen as an adult. I used to work for this crappy little jewelry store in a mall--they sold cheap jewelry mostly aimed at teenagers. Working for them was a stressful, anxiety inducing nightmare. They employed the biggest drama queens in the manager positions, and people who could not leave their issues at home. I used to babysit one of the manager's little kids without pay (I told her not to worry about it, because she was always in financial trouble...of course, she took advantage of my doing her a favor...), I had to report another manager to the district manager for telling me that she wouldn't employ black people at the store, the district manager was a raving bitch, and I was often left to work by myself, without break, for 10-12 hour shifts. I eventually put in my two week notice after putting up with it for a year, and was so pissed off with the company, that I took home jewelry with me after I closed the store. Leave me alone in there for 12 hours, having to cater to the customers, skip my lunch, and make a mad dash to the bathroom if I have to pee? Well, fuck you! I'm taking this choker!

It doesn't really excuse the stealing, and now that I'm older and wiser, I probably wouldn't do it again--and I wouldn't stay at such a miserable job for so long, either. I was just another disgruntled employee.

Never.

I steal kisses from my man!!! But that's it! I've never stolen anything and don't plan on it either!

I stole a pen from a restaurant but the pen said "do not steal" and had the logo and name of the restaurant they asked for it XD

no, because I would not like someone stealing from me.

No I don't.

From people, no.

From stores, that's a different story. In fact, my ex-boyfriend got me started when we decided to steal two starter packs of pokemon cards from wal-mart. After that, I thought I was invincible. I stole clothes, batteries, make-up... until I got caught about this january at Khol's. Ever since then I've been so afraid of ever stealing.

Only once as an adult. I was leaving a crappy job. It wasn't for monetary gain was more like 'you guys are assholes so i'm taking this stapler'.

I don't think I've stolen anything since candybars from teachers that sold them in high school....over ten years ago lol

I'll take the free things, and I really push "free", but yes, i do not steal.

Now in my life, I could never imagine taking or keeping something I had not earned.

When I was a runaway and a young teenager, I was troubled and took a few things I thought I needed to survive. As a stripper, I hustled many things.

After growing up, I learned the proper way to live. I have many many regrets from my past. If there was any way in the world I could right the wrongs I did I would. All I can do now is make sure I am 100% honest with money and belongings that are not rightfully mine.

Nope

I stole once when I was, like, five. It wasn't my choice. My mom's friend's daughter kept shoving candy down the front of my dress and forced me to hold it for her. I got caught and -I- was the only one that got in trouble for it. I was so devastated with myself.
